Black Diamond O3 Telemark Binding
Durable and versatile

Ranked #105 - Telemark Bindings

For the price, these are a great binding. I have the midstiff cartriges, which tour well and seem to have plenty of power for the downhill.
I think the only problem is that BD is now trying to market them as a touring-only binding. I'd say it's better suited for 50% inbounds and 50% out-of-bounds.
They seem to be about 100 times more durable than the G3 Targas. I have been skiing them for three years now and have not had any failures.
The cartridges to loosen relatively easily. But, it sounds like this is a problem with all of the BD bindings.
